Not saying i have the answers for other people but my doctors kept suggesting eating more vegetables etc. too. But i just kept getting larger & larger & the doctors just kept doubleing my bloodpressure & choleterols meds. A sideeffect of the meds was "water in my legs" & the docs send me thru a nightmare of getting support socks. My doctors also suggested stomach reduction surgery multiple times. 2 years ago my i reached 203 kgs & my eletronic weight stopped working. That was the final straw & i decided to search online for anwers. And everyone was like "Cut the carbs". So i did & started Keto & Omad. My weight today is 127 kgs & ive lost 76 kgs, my meds has been cut multiple times & the water in my legs has nearly fully subsided. Very little loose skin too because of the fasting. Wasnt hard fasting either as its apparently the carbs that make you constant hungry. Again not saying this a cure for anyone else, it just worked for me.

WOW, I happened upon this video 1 year later, and it's like you're speaking to me!
I now work a sedentary nursing position after decades on the hospital floor; welcome lymphedema.
Your advice was spot on, straight forward, accurately direct; and your visual examples were clear to understand and easy to replicate.
Your patients are fortunate.
Thank you.

My late husband had this, but it was assiociated with Cyrossis of the liver. There was medication, and he needed to stop drinking that would have helped, but in the end there was no hope. He couldn't stop drinking, thus I'm now a widow.

I do much the same as Robert but I’m pescatarian. Swelling for 12 years, i did some intermittent fasting and occasionally fast for a couple of days, here and there, took around two months for all swelling to go . I’m 62 only excercie is walking a couple of times a week, time varys . Low carb veg, no fruit except berries. Feeling great !

I was thankful to learn that I don't have any of these problems. I was concerned as I entered my 50s, a post-menopausal woman, and after being on my feet all day my ankles and then lower calves would swell. Most days I wore restaurant-style crew socks that aren't exactly compression socks, but do enhance circulation. My ankles don't swell when I wear those, but the lower calves do. I had a physical after work one day, scheduled so my doctor could look at it. She pressed on each foot, saw that it was symmetrical, and noted that I don't have varicose veins. She asked if the swelling goes down when I take my socks off and put my feet up. It did, so she said it's not yet a cause for concern, but she suggested some exercises to further enhance circulation. It has kept the swelling to a minimum. Now in my 60s, the swelling occurs less often.

I took virgin coconut oil n it fixed my condition, 600 ml over 7 days.

Thank you for this video on swelling of feet, ankles and legs. All the exercises I liked and believe I’ll be able to do. Watched other videos, but can’t do them because of stiffness and obesity. The Lymphedema therapists are skinny and can’t do the massages they recommend to break up Lymphatic fluid and work out of the system. Doing the best I can. Need more videos for older seniors.

[Kaynos]

I have been wearing 20-30mgg socks for over a year and it completely fixed my problem. I wear them all day long, only taking them off to sleep at night. Only thing is buy quality socks, it makes all the difference. I tried many before finding the right kind for me. Don't expect comfort if you pay 20$ for 8 pairs.

I was diagnosed with stage 1 Lymphadema in 2020
I manage it with hood diet and compression pump daily. My ankles swell in different spots. I've been to lymph clinics. I watched a very helpful video on how to wrap effectively . Now I watch your video, very very helpful. I wasn't told to exercise and stretch or soak feat.
Thank you

Hi MFDs - I broke my ankle in February and I wanted to let you know that your videos were an enormous help to me. You explain everything so well and with such great humour you made the situation much, much better. I hope I never get lymphedema though!

I’m a retired nurse & loved wearing support pantyhose 😂 while doing 12 hour shifts. I had a hip replacement and of course I had those white surgical hose to wear for several days afterwards, loved them! (Plus they were warm 👍). Later in life I’ve had minor ankle swelling, nothing serious so I went to CVS and bought a pair of men’s support hose, had nothing for women, yes foot was too big so I cut off some & I wear them as needed, like when mowing the yard, works great! I wear shoes in the house & special supportive shoes when mowing. I’ve had bunions and hammer toe surgery on both feet, the first podiatrist messed up my right foot, used a different podiatrist for left foot, perfect. Yeah the right foot makes walking difficult, and yes I’m NOT going through that pain again. BTW. Love your channel.

I was a patient at a Lymphedema center for about 2 months in April-May 2022. As part of the recovery process, I had my legs and feet measured for bespoke compression socks and night boots. The total cost of purchasing 2 pair of socks and boots was over $1500. I wear the socks/boots 22/7. It worked. I now have chicken legs and will be re-measured for new compression socks next week. I was told I would have to do this the rest of my life, which is worth the price and inconvenience.

The effort and information in this video was great. Very straight forward . Time to start wearing shoes around the house!

[grampi]

Very, very interesting. First time I've heard advice that actually makes sense and just might help my condition.

[thesonhaslife]

Try so much for addressing this issue . I have Lymphedema and recently broke my big toe . It's been rough so far, 5th week in . I need a referral to food doctor as the emergency room was of little help . Your videos have been so informative and also do double duty of adding some good cheer as well . I'm a former Michigan lady and wanted you to know what a great service you're providing . Wished I could come to your office . God bless

[cinjm]

This is the most thorough video with the best ideas I've seen out of the hundreds I've watched. thank you so much !

Cut the sugar out. Helps reduce inflammation all over.

My edema went away when I started taking 24mg of astaxanthin a day. I'm on 12mg now to maintain my system but the improvement in overall health was remarkable. I highly recommend astaxanthin (Real astaxanthin - not just the food coloring that they put in farm raised salmon) for anyone with a heart condition. Cancer patients wouldn't hurt to take this wonderful supplement. I use the form sold by "Doctor's Best" but there are several good suppliers of this supplement.

I went from having to take a water pill to not having to take one. In other words, my heart is pumping better now. I'm sure my lymphatic system is in better shape as well.
